Per-person maths
Why group size changes the value
A full charter is a fixed price, so the per-person cost falls as guests join. A 7-day charter at US$50,000 is US$5,000 each for 10 guests, but about US$8,333 each for six.
- Shoulder seasons April–June and September–November bring good weather and more competitive pricing.
- Low season February–March is generally avoided for open-water cruising because of monsoon rains.
